The athlete, who is recuperating from
a bad fall while competing, was seen sweeping back her blonde hair in

crutches were on also the back seat.

Woods, 37, and Vonn, 28, announced
their relationship to the world on Monday, scuppering reports that Tiger
has been attempting to win back Nordegren, who received $100 million as
a divorce settlement.

The pair announced their relationship
status in statements simultaneously published on Woods's official
website and Vonn's Facebook page on Monday along with a photo of
themselves together.

'Our relationship evolved from a friendship into something more over these past few months and it has made me very happy,'

'I don't plan on addressing this further as I would like to keep that part of my life between us, my family and close friends.'

Woods wrote: 'Something nice that's
happened off the course was meeting Lindsey Vonn. Lindsey and I have
been friends for some time, but over the last few months we have become
very close and are now dating.'

'We thank you for your support and
for respecting our privacy. We want to continue our relationship,
privately, as an ordinary couple and continue to compete as athletes.'

The pair have been the subject of
romance rumours for some time and last month he sent his private jet to
fly her home to Vail, Colorado after a crash at the Alpine World
Championships in Austria left her with torn ligaments in her right knee
and a fractured shin.

They have also been spotted together in Vail and aboard Wood's yacht in Florida.

Vonn announced her split from husband of four years, Thomas Vonn, in November 2011.

Woods meanwhile had a spectacular fall from grace in 2009 when his extra-marital affairs exploded in headlines.

The scandal erupted after a bizarre
November 27 car crash outside his mansion in Windermere, Orlando, the
day after The National Enquirer, linked him to New York party hostess
Rachel Uchitel.

Woods had admitted to a string of affairs with as many as 14 women coming forward to claim they had slept with him.

Among those who came forward to say
they were his mistress were two adult film stars, a cocktail waitress
and a waitress from his local pancake restaurant.

Loredana Jolie, a 27-year-old former
Playboy model who charged up to $15,000 a night for sex, claimed she
first met Woods in 2006 when he hired her for £10,000 during a visit to
New York.

Nordegren quickly ditched her wedding ring - and later filed for divorce.

The Swede took an estimated $100million settlement and custody of their two young children Sam and Charlie.

Speaking about her relationship with
the golfer, she said she felt 'blindsided' and 'embarrassed' when she
found out about his multiple infidelities.

She said: 'I never suspected. For the
last three-and-a-half years, when all this was going on, I was home a
lot more with pregnancies, then the children and my school.

The New York Post reported earlier
this month sources close to the 33-year-old former Swedish model and
Cline, who is 55, say they have been 'quietly dating'.

Cline, who has made his money mining
coal in Illinois and West Virginia, is worth a reported $1.2billion. He
is the owner of mining company Cline Resource and Development.

Cline has been married twice and has
four children with his previous wives. His first wife, Sabrina, died of
breast cancer in 1987. He remarried in 1993 and then divorced seven
years later.

Cline generally tries to stay out of
the media spotlight, but he made headlines in September when he hosted a
fundraiser for failed Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney at
his $10.5 million home in Seminole Landing.

He has also attracted some attention
over the years for hosting blowout parties with the Palm Beach elite on
his 164-foot yacht named Mine Games, which boasts two formal dining
rooms, a poolside bar and a hot tub.

Before reports that Nordegren and
Cline were dating, it was rumored Nordegren was rekindling her
relationship with Woods after the former couple was photographed
together in public earlier this year.

Nordegren has also been romantically linked to businessman Jamie Dingman and to Swedish hockey player Douglas Murray.
